Federal judge rejects Ohio's Web porn law

What there needs to be is a penalty to parents that let their kids go on the net unsupervised who get themselves into trouble with predators.

I see the desire to create a new type of charge against predators and agree with it (assuming it targets them only, and not other non-predator situations), but I think parents need to shoulder some responisibility for their kids' actions and well-being.

I mean really, isn't it quite negligent when a parent has no clue what their young son or daughter is up to on their bedroom computer, getting into sexual discussions with strange adult men who are out trolling for the young stuff? Even a small slap on the wrist of some sort would be a better message to those parents than nothing at all.
